P.S.: I should note that it was pointed out on the patchmanagement.org list that a few programs have been found to be using AUTORUN.INF to store *other* information -- beyond AutoRun directives. Some unnamed Kodak software was the example. I would consider such behavior a defect, but one should be aware of the possibility and be prepared to work around it as needed. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
